fraud

This woman is "ethically challenged" and is not above failing to tell the truth, in court, to a judge. I suppose she might be worth consulting with if you are "banged to rights" guilty as a cooked goose (assuming she is a much cheaper hire than most "ambulance chasers." I WOULD NEVER HIRE IF I...NNOCENT!!!

Paper Pusher

Isn’t looking to get justice for clients. Just follows the path of least resistance to get the trial done.

Doesn’t support her client

Doesn’t want to represent a client because someone else gave a negative review. So not going by the constitution but going on feelings. You better find yourself a good lawyer instead of her

Don’t waste your time

You would honestly be better off with no council if she got appointed to you. She is lazy and doesn’t want to do her job, will openly lie in court, I don’t think she knows how to do her job, she is either incompetent or just plain ignorant.

BAD

Sam doesn't like to listen to her clients. She will lie to the Judge in order to get removed from your case rather than file a motion to dismiss. She is also scared of the First Amendment and retaliates due to her "chilling effect" when you express how much you dislike how bad she is as a lawyer an...d how you want to be defended because she thinks she knows better than you do.
